A Message From Your Prayer Chaplain'sEaster is a time to reflect on the death and resurrection of Jesus—a season of hope, renewal, and the promise of eternal life. In Unity, Jesus teaches us how to live from an awareness of our own divinity. Easter serves as a metaphor for the inherent power within each of us to transcend personal challenges. Unity principles guide us in living a meaningful, spiritually fulfilling life:

Youth & Family MinistryThis month, April brings Easter right at the beginning of the month, followed by Fiesta, setting a tone of celebration for the whole month! In Unity, we celebrate Easter as a joyous reminder that God and Love is stronger than death. Our Easter curriculum says "It is important that we not shy away from considering Jesus' death with the children. They may hear it from other sources about Jesus dying. They may hear a common statement about "Jesus dying for our sins." We can offer them a different perspective about the Easter story, starting with our principle that we are all good because God's Divinity is in us and in everyone. A more updated translation of the word "sin" is "error in thought". Through the Easter story we have an opportunity to share these concepts while focusing on the main theme of Easter that love is greater than death through the Resurrection story. Easter traditionally comes with Easter egg hunts, and who doesn't love a great Easter egg hunt! So we will discuss what the Easter egg has to do with the Easter story, and we'll finish off the Easter service with an Easter Egg celebration...an Easter Egg hunt, of course! We have Easter bags ready for the hunt.
In April, we are also registering for our Y.O.U. (High schoolers) spiritual retreat called Legacy Rally. It's a 5 day retreat created by teens, for teens that includes lots of fun, connection, and joy wrapped into spiritual focus. "Activities include large and small group workshops, singing, meditation, dancing, and prayer under an umbrella of fun and fellowship." For more information, look at our Events page. Also, stay tuned for more information on our upcoming YFM (Youth and Family Ministry) fundraiser on May 3. Much of these funds will help pay for scholarships to our rallys.
